preptv is an extra-curricular program designed to promote campus life and communicate
student achievement in academics, athletics and the arts. "At first, our slogan 'onair, online
onyou' sounded kind of cheesy," continued Principal Gow. "But we stayed with it because it
crystallized what preptv is. We broadcast shows throughout the campus. We post photos and
videos online. And, all of it is about you, the students of North Pointe Prep. The over 400
pages, 30,000 photos and hundreds of videos posted on preptv.org highlight the school's
commitment to use preptv to promote our students."



Privacy Policy As a general rule, preptv does not post the last name of elementary students while identifying their participation in a school activity or promoting their accomplishment in Knowledge, Character, and Leadership. Likewise preptv does not include any reference to a student in a posted jpeg or mpeg image file name. These precautions should eliminate parental concerns about a child being identified as the result of an Internet search.

school's popular website. "The obvious question

it does not provide our students the opportunity to post thoughts,
ideas and positive comments about each other. Second, many of our
students have asked preptv to let them know when specific photos and
videos have been posted. Our relationship with Facebook and Twitter
allows our students to be more involved in preptv's coverage of events
and provides us an avenue to notify students of specific photo and
video postings."
